Day 129

I need to change the name of this blog.  I'm no longer Lost in Loss Vegas - more Finding Self in Fullerton lol.

I've successfully moved out.  I'm working 50+ hrs a week, but ten of those are for my mom, so it's not too bad.  I get to see Rachel every day, or nearly every day, which is still mind-blowing.  I'm not writing very much any more because I usually spend what downtime I do have with Rachel not doing much of anything, but I did apply to the UCs and CSUs for the fall of 2013, and I'm in the process of applying to private schools right now.  Supplemental essays, here I come.

I made a list of all the great people I've somehow managed to fill my life with, and it's a long list.  It makes me hopeful about where I'm going and how I'll be doing when I get there.  These days, I'm thinking in terms of years, not weeks.  I've (sort of) got a plan, I know what I need to do to make it happen, and I'm doing it.  Funny/strange.  Everything is happening!  Change is scary, but I can't help but be hopeful about it all.  And not anxious-hopeful either - just hopeful.

So what do I rename this blog?  Orange County Confessional?  The Call Center Diaries?  Letters from a Data Entry Clerk?  It needs to be something indicative of its embarrassingly personal nature.  Shameless Oversharing?
